War Elephants.

New York Sun.
Attached to the British Indian army,
which is now in Burmsh trying to wipe
out the murderous bands of Dacoits that
are afrighting the country, is an ele-
plant battery. Seven pound guns, in
GLIDING their carriages, are fastened to q
framework and hoisted upon the backs
Of the elephants. In this way the troops
are able to transport their artillery
through long stretches Of country where
there are no wagon roads, and where
they would not be able to take their
cannon if they did not have beasts Of
burden strong enough to carry the artil-
lery on their backs. When the troops
meet the enemy the guns are quickly
unloaded by means of tripod, to which
is attached q swinging arm and tackle.
The elephant takes more humble
place in war nowadays than formerly.
He used to be one of the combatants,
but in these days of gunpowder and
bombehells he has been reduced to the
transportation department. Centuries
before the Christian era the rulers of
Egypt maintained stations as far south
as Kartoum for the cole purpose Of col
Letting wild elephants, to be tanned and
trained for war purposes. They we're
used, not only to carry archers and jave-
lin-hurlers into the field. but were also
trained to rush upon the enemy and
trample them under foot. While oppos-
ing warriors on their elephants fought at
short range the elephants themselves
would fight each other. 1t is said that
the notion that the Asiatic elephant is
superior to his African brother dates
from the time when, in battle between
Antochus III, King Of Syria, and
Ptolemy Philopater, in PIT B. O., the
Asiatic elephants in the army Of the
Syrian monarch killed every one of
Ptolemy's African animals. This idea
Of the superiority Of the Asiatic elephant
is still held by many, though it is prob
ably groundless.

affair Is Just this; When the negotiations for the

ROBERT Garrett were in progress, Ives deposited
a considerable amount OF money as margin
vi PIGHul, anu Wuen the negotiations were ue-
ciared ut an end Ives did not get his money back
and Garrett went to Europe thus leaving it tied
up Tor some time at least. Therefore Ives was
considerably crippled and was probably unable to

Asphalt Blocks for street Paving.
COL LUDLOW AND CAPT. GRIFFIN GOING ON Az M
SPECTING TOUR
Early next week Commissioner Ludlow. accom-.
panied by Capt. Eugene Griffin, Of the Engineer
Department., will visit Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New York to inspect the composition and
manufacture OF the asphalt paving blocks used
in those cities As at present manufactured the
blocks contain proportion Of II per cent OF TIM
dad asphalt to SS per cent OF crushed lime
stone. Special attention must be given 70
the mixture OF these materials else the
blocks will not have a uniform resistance
TO the wear and tear OF travel upon them and the
atmospheric conditions which effect their decay.
Another condition Of their manufacture Is that ths
crushed stone and asphalt shall be thoroughly
compressed, In order TO preclude any possibility OF
unusual porOsity, for with the coming OF winter,
II water has entered the pores 1t will neezs and
cause the blocks to crumble and decay.
Some time ago the District was obliged to con-
denim y. 600 or the asphalt paving blocks which
are furnished for alley and other work, for the
reason that they were not made Id strict con.
fOrmity to the aforementioned conditions, and,
therefore, the Commissioners desire to ascertain
by their own observation what care Is exercised
In the supervision OF their manufacture and the
conditions thereof
